Intestinal parasites

A national survey in the United States by the Centers for Disease Control shows that
one in six people selected at random had parasites!

What are parasites?

The word parasites comes from the Greek para, meaning beside, meaning
food. meaning an animal or plant that lives on or in another organism
from which it obtains nutrients. Parasites are larger than bacteria and viruses but
usually so small that you cannot seen without a microscope. There are 4 major types of
parasites which include Protozoa (amoebas, giardia), Nematode (round, pin, and hookworms),
Cestode (tapeworms), and Trematode (flukes). Bacteria can also be parasitic.

Intestinal parasites are a common cause of digestive disturbances in people. Intestinal
invaders such as pinworms are easily passed from one person to another through careless
hygiene. Pinworms are the most common parasite in persons living in temperate climates,
which includes most of the Middle& Lower United States. These worms can cause anal
itching, but they often produce no symptoms at all; many people are therefore unaware of
them and never treat them. Another parasite that is becoming very common is, giardia, it
is becoming more and more common, not only near rivers and lakes in North and South
America. Giardia interferes with the digestion of fats; it manifests itself with
diarrhea, cramps, weight loss

Mix herbs and purified water in a saucepan. Bring water to a boil, turn off heat and
steep for 30 minutes. Strain out the herbal solid remnants. Drink 1 to 2 cups a day until
parasites are removed (you should also seek the advice of your health care provider)

Warning:Do not use enemas or laxatives if abdominal pain, nausea, or vomiting are present
unless directed by your health care provider.
Rectal bleeding or failure to have a bowel movement after use of a laxative or enema may
indicate a serious condition.
Discontinue use and consult your health care provider.
